Examples#

ADCToolbox includes 63 ready-to-run examples organized into 10 categories. This page demonstrates common use cases and analysis workflows.

Getting the Examples#

To copy all examples to your workspace:

adctoolbox-get-examples

This creates an adctoolbox_examples/ directory with all examples organized by category.

Running Examples#

Navigate to the examples directory and run any example. Examples are organized by category:

cd adctoolbox_examples
python 01_basic/exp_b01_environment_check.py
python 02_spectrum/exp_s01_analyze_spectrum_simplest.py
python 02_spectrum/exp_s02_analyze_spectrum_interactive.py

Examples that generate figures save PNG outputs to an output/ subdirectory within each category folder.

Category Folders:

  • 02_spectrum/ - Spectrum analysis examples

  • 03_generate_signals/ - Signal generation examples

  • 04_debug_analog/ - Analog output analysis examples

  • 05_debug_digital/ - Digital output analysis examples

  • 06_use_toolsets/ - Comprehensive dashboard examples

  • 07_conversions/ - Conversion and metric calculation examples

  • 08_time_interleave/ - Time-interleaved ADC analysis examples

  • 09_downsample/ - Subsample and aliasing examples

  • 10_oversampling/ - Oversampling and noise-shaping examples

Expected Outputs#

For reference, selected expected outputs are documented below. These pages show representative console output, figures, and validation results for the main example groups.
